An orchard invisible: Hidden seeds of wisdom in the English and Croatian proverbial apples

open access: yesThe European Journal of Humour Research, 2016
In the paper we analyse humorous modified proverbs in light of the theory of conceptual integration. Unlike traditional proverbs, which teach us something and elucidate some aspects of human life, modified proverbs are here primarily to entertain us ...

Friend, Not Foe: Lowered Tissue Reactivity to Long‐Term Polyimide Implants

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The choice of optimal neural probe designs remains a major challenge in the field of neurotechnology. This study investigated the biocompatibility of several probe variations, including material, thickness, width, and implantation strategy. It highlights the clear advantage of soft polyimide probes over stiff silicon probes for better device ...

Morphotropic Phase Boundary in Graft Poly(Vinylidene Fluoride‐co‐Tetrafluoroethylene) With High Curie Temperature

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The first TrFE‐free ferroelectric polymers exhibiting concurrently a morphotropic phase boundary and high Curie temperature are reported through a grafting strategy, which is completely different from previous methods to design MPB by composition and irradiation. This finding offers a cost‐effective solution to decode the long‐standing inverse relation

Sono‐Mechanogenetics: Linking Ultrasound Physics With Cellular Mechanobiology

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Sono‐mechanogenetics links ultrasound physics with cellular mechanotransduction to enable noninvasive control of engineered biological systems. Acoustic forces generate distinct deformation modes that activate intracellular signaling pathways, which can be coupled to synthetic gene circuits to regulate diverse cellular functions, including gene ...
